The College Writer, 8th edition, Published

For almost 25 years, I’ve been part of the author team producing The College Writer for students in composition courses in colleges and universities. This academic-writing handbook has helped hundred of thousands of students become better readers, thinkers, and writers.

Given the state of the world, it’s safe to say that better readers, thinkers, and writers are needed!

Now the lead author of The College Writer, I’m pleased as punch to share that the 8th edition has been published and will be available as of January 1, 2026.
